Jim,
You got it, just change schema, and log in to do conversions, and you are
off to the next upgrade. After a couple runs you should feel very confident
about the process. Good luck, Aaron Hoyt Vantage Plastics

Subject: [Vantage] Upgrading my Database question



Many thanks to all of you who have helped me complete my first run thru test
upgrade from 4.0 to 6.1. I have converted all my RB and custom Progress
files and all of my CR reports seem to be working ok. Now I want to take a
copy of our current 4.0 db and take it up to 6.1 again. I still have in
place all the version's on one pc and won't have to install them again. My
question is: Is the Change Schema and DB conversions all I have to do to at
each version level ? I don't have to reapply the Progress or Vantage Service
packs at each level, do I ? If there is something else I need to do I've
left out, please say so.

Thanks,

Jim Moore
